Geltungsbereich und Anwendbarkeit

This standard is mandatory and applies to disinfection hygiene and management requirements across all levels and types of medical institutions in China. It is also applicable to disease prevention and control institutions and blood collection/supply agencies. It governs the hygienic requirements for hospital environments, medical equipment, and healthcare personnel.

Technische Anforderungen

The standard specifies stringent microbial limit criteria for various hospital environments, categorized into Classes I through IV based on the criticality of the medical activities performed. It mandates specific colony-forming unit (CFU) limits for air and surface cleanliness in areas ranging from clean operating rooms to general outpatient departments. For medical devices, the standard classifies equipment into high-risk, semi-critical, and low-risk categories. High-risk devices must be sterile, while semi-critical and low-risk devices have defined CFU limits and must not detect pathogenic microorganisms. Additionally, it outlines hygiene parameters for treatment water, protective equipment (such as medical masks and protective clothing), and disinfectants. It sets specific concentration and microbial limits for disinfectants in use, ensuring that sterilizing agents and skin/mucosa disinfectants meet stringent purity requirements. The standard also dictates management requirements for hospital facility layout, sterilization method selection, and the handling of medical waste and sewage, ensuring comprehensive infection control workflows.

Prüfverfahren

The standard outlines sampling and inspection methodologies for assessing microbial contamination on surfaces, in the air, and on medical staff hands. It details specific plate exposure methods and air sampler techniques for different environmental classes. It also includes procedures for testing the microbial load on medical equipment, the bacterial contamination of in-use disinfectants, and the intensity of ultraviolet germicidal lamps. Specific pathogen detection methods for target microorganisms during suspected infection outbreaks are also specified.
